Abstract (original English)

Epilepsy is a common neurologic disorder. While a good clinical solution is still missing, studies have confirmed that exosomes (Exos) derived from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) had a therapeutic effect on various diseases, including neurological diseases. Therefore, this study aimed to reveal whether ADSC-Exo treatment could improve kainic acid (KA)-induced seizures in epileptic mice. ADSCs and Exos were isolated. Mice were generated with KA-induced epileptic seizures. ELISA was used to detect inflammatory factor expression. Luciferase reporter analysis detection showed a relationship among miR-23b-3p, STAT1, and glyoxylate reductase 1 (GlyR1). ADSC-Exos had a protective effect on KA-induced seizures by inhibiting inflammatory factor expression and the M1 microglia phenotype. The result showed that miR-23b-3p played an important role in the Exo-mediated protective effect in KA-induced seizures in epileptic mice by regulating STAT1 and GlyR1. Luciferase reporter analysis confirmed that miR-23b-3p interacted with the 3'-UTR of STAT1 and GlyR1. The miR-23b-3p inhibited M1 microglia-mediated inflammatory factor expression in microglial cells by regulating STAT1 and GlyR1. The downregulation of miR-23b-3p decreased the protective effect of ADSC-Exos on KA-induced seizures in epileptic mice. The miR-23b-3p from ADSC-Exos alleviated inflammation in mice with KA-induced epileptic
